MS Spitsbergen Review

Sadly let down by Hurtigruten. The ship was very comfortable, the food excellent and the scenery fantastic. However, the reason you go on this cruise is to see the Northern Lights. The literature clearly states again and again that announcements will be made whenever the lights are visible so that "you will never miss a sighting". Sadly that did not happen on our cruise. Three announcements were indeed made but we were told by other passengers that there had been at least two other occasions, later in the evenings, when the lights were visible and better. We had our loudspeaker on in our cabin, our clothes and cameras ready, but we missed it! I have tried to get an explanation from Hurtigruten but they do not respond to my emails. I can only conclude that once their guarantee is fulfilled they are no longer interested in their passengers. Very difficult to rate this cruise as the ship should get 6 but their service over the lights gets 0. Average out at 3

"I think your company is exceptionally good at looking after the interest of passengers both before and after their holidays and your help has been very much appreciated. I have sung your praises to my friends and I hope this will lead to many more bookings for you including more from me."
